South Carolina is coming off one of the season's most shocking upsets, taking down Tennessee 63-38 as a 23.5-point underdog. The Gamecocks out gained the Volunteers 606 to 507 in total yardage. Spencer Rattler had a huge game to lead the win throwing for 438 yards with six touchdowns. Rattler had previously only topped 230 yards once this season. Tight end Jaheim Bell led the team with a career-best 82 yards on 17 carries rushing. Bell has taken over as the lead running back since Marshawn Lloyd suffered a quad contusion which has caused him the miss last three games, but he is questionable for Saturday.
